How to Install nVIDIA 304.43 with one click

Yesterday, we've informed you about the latest nVIDIA driver 304.43. Today, we show you how to install them using our script that automatically configures your Ubuntu system. Click to the button bellow to learn how you can use our script.

And the strangest things are yet to come. After removing the 3.5 Kernel it didnt come up on the update manager like the first time after the installer exit and reboot. Strange things . Now i'm back on 3.2.0-29 and no updates whatsoever.

Just tried running the script a few times on a fresh install of 12.04. Second pass, it saw Nvidia and gave the option of installing proprietary drivers. After a reboot, the GUI remained broken, with only the shell working. Nouveau re-install worked to bring back the GUI. It looks like an awesome script! This is definitely my fault for getting an X79 motherboard. It seems Ubuntu can be tricky with new hardware.

Perhaps Xorg-Edgers PPA is too "xtreme". I will modify the script to give you the option to select between X-Swat (stable) and Xorg-Edgers (beta). Currently it uses Xorg-edgers PPA, which is a possible reason for your X break.

Please notice that this is just the 1st version of this script. Thanks very much for the feedback :)

Running the script will automatically update your version to 304.43 along with some proper configuration. Although, if you want to play on the "safe" road please feel free to use the update manager method. Thanks for your kind words :)

Thank you, worked great! I was fighting through getting 304.43 installed. I had downloaded the driver from nVidia and while searching how to kill nVidia X found this. This was a lot simpler, and gives me a restore from Terminal if things go wrong. Thanks again.
